    “bluemaga” is an observation that no, democrats are not the opposite of republicans.

    they are fascist imperialists just like republicans. the difference is they are polite and charismatic.

      Well, and less genocide and human rights abuse, as even the person I replied to could admit.

              Who’s they??? I’m not talking about Democrat campaign promises, I’m talking about the measurable impact of things that happened since Trump’s second term. That much more suffering could have been avoided.

                I’ve (as what Americans would consider extreme leftist/antifa) had my conversations on this tankie loaded instance .

                They seem to have difficulties to understand the difference between bad and worse, and try to put that on the same level with strawman arguments…

              That’s an incredible disregard for human suffering. Those that would let a million more Jews die when they have the ability to save lives and suffering are more Nazi, in my opinion.

                So the Nazis wouldn’t have been Nazis if they only exterminated five million Jews in death camps.

                You’re a fucking idiot

                    “I’m not a Nazi! I only killed 5 million Jews! The guy that killed 5 million and ONE Jews is the Nazi!”

        i don’t see anyone admitting to anything, just you being insistent. your country has been genociding and abusing human rights for decades under democrats and republicans pretty much equally. i can’t think of a single recent us president that wasn’t a war criminal.

        can you?

        Daniel Democrat beats a man 49% to death with a lead pipe, then Robert Republican takes his turn and does the other 51%. The man is now a smear on the floor.

        Daniel Democrat turns to the police and says “Why are you questioning me, the other guy did it more!”

        Shut up, you’re both going to prison.

          You haven’t demonstrated why I shouldn’t favor the person that doesn’t beat a man to death

            You’re pretending to be a moron to avoid culpability for your fascism, and it will one day end badly for you. Try this line of bullshit in Palestine.
